Introduction: Antje Vowinckel

Despite his extensive oeuvre of more than 40 radio art pieces he still seems to be a hidden hero. We will listen to

The Dreams, one of the first pieces with an experimental use of speech fragments, Radioville. Metropolis London,

an unusual city soundscape based on sounds of the London Tube and Moviola, based on sound bites of film reels

processed in an old "moviola", a device for analogue film editing. (For these pieces no German is required)Barry Bermange was born in London 1933, where he still lives. He developed his first radio pieces in the BBC Radiophonic

workshop. His work became more and more musical and abstract. Many of his pathbreaking pieces were produced in Germany by WDR and SWR. Three times he was awarded with the renowned Karl-Sczuka-Preis for radio art.
